The school kitchen continues to provide a healthy and nourishing menu of lunches every day. We try to celebrate key dates and festivals with appropriately exciting additions to the menu. In the past this has included a “Burns” meal with bagpiper, Irish Stew in St Patrick’s Day, and leeks from the school garden on St David’s Day.
The latest menu is available from the school office.

Church Road, which runs between the two school sites, poses a number of hazards for children. As a result of this, a “School Safety Zone” has been established. The zone covers the area from North of the school entrance to South of the village library. The zone is clearly marked and is identified by red bands across the road and road signs. Within the zone there is a speed limit of 20mph at all times. The yellow zig-zag markings and double yellow lines identify areas where there is no parking or dropping off at any time.
We ask anyone who delivers and picks up children by car to park sensibly, and observe the restrictions of the School Safety Zone.
Please do not reverse or drive into the school entrances.
The school entrances are particularly hazardous places at the beginning and end of the day. Please wait for your child on foot, further up the pedestrian access, away from the road. On the main site please wait on the triangular “No Parking” area. On the Key Stage 1 site please wait in the large playground. There are waiting shelters on both sites for use in inclement weather.
Children are encouraged to wear the school colours, which are red and grey. The uniform gives children a feeling of identity and helps towards developing a sense of unity within the school. For full details of the preferred school wear click the link below.
You can download an order form here. Cost of all items are shown on the form. Please print off and return the completed form to the school office. (Sorry, you cannot order online through this website.)

The school strongly encourages parents and carers not to arrange holidays during the school term. Where this is unavoidable, they are asked to complete a holiday form and submit it to the school giving at least 5 days notice.
You can download a “Holiday Form” using the link below. The form includes guidance about holidays in term time.
Please print off and return the completed form to the school office. (Sorry, you cannot submit the form online through this website.)
